Registered Staff Hours
Nurse Quality
While this nursing home's overall grade was terrible, it actually didn't perform as poorly in nursing. We awarded it a C for that area. Our nursing rating focuses on the nursing home's nurse staffing levels. We weigh both the levels of skill of the nurses as well as the quantity of hours spent with patients. This nursing home provides only 0.4 hours of nursing care per patient daily. This is a somewhat alarming figure as it is well below the national average. Lastly, although this facility got docked a bit for nursing hours, it excelled in some of our quality measures. With less than five percent of its residents sustaining pressure ulcers, it fared well in this statistic.
Long-term Care Quality
Unfortunately, this nursing home's next most favorable score was long-term care. As it turns out, with a grade of D in this category, it still fared somewhat badly. For long-term care residents, the facility's primary goal is to maintain residents' quality of life and keep them safe. On top of considering the quantity of care provided by nurses and other staff, we looked at the number of residents vaccinated against pneumonia. This facility provided the vaccine to 96.42857 percent of its residents, which is higher than the majority of nursing homes. To our surprise, this facility was able to limit hospitalizations. With just 0.01 hospitalizations per one thousand long-term resident days, this facility has fewer hospitalizations than the majority of nursing homes. Unfortunately, a few of its other scores in the category were not as favorable as these.

Short-term Care Quality
The third area we analyzed was short-term care. This facility's was given a poor short-term care grade where it was given a lowly F. Our short-term care ratings are crucial for residents in need of rehabilitation. Rehabilitation typically requires additional skilled nursing. Skilled nursing means a broad scope of services, ranging from registered nurses to physical and speech therapists, as well as other forms of therapy. Considering its score in this category, we were not surprised to find that this facility is well below average in terms of its number of physical therapy and registered nurse hours provided to its patients based on the data we assessed. Frankly, this was about what we expected to find. Lastly, we looked at the percentage of patients who were able to return to the community from this facility. We found that just 3.4 percent of this nursing home's residents returned home.
Facility Inspections
The last category we looked at was inspections. This nursing home didn't receive favorable inspection reports in recent years. Consequently, we had to give it an F. You should pay special attention to any deficiencies on a facility's inspection reports when it receives this bad of an inspection score. We would scrutinize the severity of those deficiencies. This facility had 4 deficiencies by government inspectors. The only favorable thing we found is that none of the deficiencies were in the categories that indicate that they caused a risk to resident health or safety. Finally, this facility was cited by CMS for possible abuse or neglect. We would not recommend this facility under any circumstance.
